{The Immortal Dynasty Challenge Rules}

(Note to mods: I debated with myself where I'd place this...the challenge itself actually is pretty close to a legacy ruleset, and my execution of the story would be closer to something not bound to a legacy or challenge. I know it sounds pretentious, but I just wanted to get my concerns out. If you feel a need to move this, do it!)
